Or, maybe it was more of a quieter day, taking time to yourself. The day has a way of passing by so fast, and before . . .

Seriously? HOW is it 2019 next week? I saw meme flying around that said 2018 went like: January, January, January, January, March, April, May, July, Augus, Se-, Octo-, NoveXmas.

Crispy Latkes

When I went to see my nutritionist last week for my weekly visit she said "OK, let's talk Chanuka"  Traditionally we eat lots of fried and dairy foods on Chanuka with donuts being a big one.  And fried and donuts and dairy are all not conducive to weight loss.  I mean, all in moderation but on . . .

Weight Loss Frustrations

"You look amazing!" "You must feel so good!" "Wow! I didn’t recognize you!" These are comments and compliments I get every day. And yes, I do feel incredible and so much more healthy, most days.

Challa Toppings

Traditionally in  the month of Tishrei we eat lots of sweet foods - at the start of our meal when we eat the Challa Bread, instead of dipping into the traditional salt, we dip in honey.  We bake and eat honey cake, among other honey rich foods.  There are a couple of sweet Challa Topping variations . . .

My Journey To Health

Journey to Health

One of the biggest things I've learned along my journey to health is to listen to my body. Back in April I was in a really bad shape. My back was in excruciating pain, my knees hurt when I climbed stairs. I got winded really fast and I was in so much pain. I was always tired and was so unhappy. It . . .

Spaghetti Bolognese

One of the benefits of being a WAHM mom during the summer, while trying to get healthy, is that I’m able to prepare a hot fresh lunch every day. Ironically it’s also one of the most detrimental things to me watching what I'm eating. I keep telling myself “I’m home, I’ll cook lunch” "I’ll prepare . . .
